I'm saying Bernie missed his moment. There is no better because we don't know what to do with this moment. We haven't built anything outside of Bernie and that failed.
Anyone who thinks they know what to do isn't recognizing what was lost when the Bernie campaigns failed. And maybe that's what's needed. To really see clearly how the Bernie moment failed to connect with the American public. We can complain that it was the Democrats fault. But damn if didn't fail in important ways as well.
